\left(p-30\right)\sqrt{3}=-3\left(k+3\right)
Multiply both sides of the equation by 3\left(p-30\right), the least common multiple of 3,30-p.
p\sqrt{3}-30\sqrt{3}=-3\left(k+3\right)
Use the distributive property to multiply p-30 by \sqrt{3}.
p\sqrt{3}-30\sqrt{3}=-3k-9
Use the distributive property to multiply -3 by k+3.
-3k-9=p\sqrt{3}-30\sqrt{3}
Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.
-3k=p\sqrt{3}-30\sqrt{3}+9
Add 9 to both sides.
-3k=\sqrt{3}p+9-30\sqrt{3}
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{-3k}{-3}=\frac{\sqrt{3}p+9-30\sqrt{3}}{-3}
Divide both sides by -3.
k=\frac{\sqrt{3}p+9-30\sqrt{3}}{-3}
Dividing by -3 undoes the multiplication by -3.
k=-\frac{\sqrt{3}p}{3}+10\sqrt{3}-3
Divide p\sqrt{3}-30\sqrt{3}+9 by -3.
\left(p-30\right)\sqrt{3}=-3\left(k+3\right)
Variable p cannot be equal to 30 since division by zero is not defined. Multiply both sides of the equation by 3\left(p-30\right), the least common multiple of 3,30-p.
p\sqrt{3}-30\sqrt{3}=-3\left(k+3\right)
Use the distributive property to multiply p-30 by \sqrt{3}.
p\sqrt{3}-30\sqrt{3}=-3k-9
Use the distributive property to multiply -3 by k+3.
p\sqrt{3}=-3k-9+30\sqrt{3}
Add 30\sqrt{3} to both sides.
\sqrt{3}p=-3k+30\sqrt{3}-9
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{\sqrt{3}p}{\sqrt{3}}=\frac{-3k+30\sqrt{3}-9}{\sqrt{3}}
Divide both sides by \sqrt{3}.
p=\frac{-3k+30\sqrt{3}-9}{\sqrt{3}}
Dividing by \sqrt{3} undoes the multiplication by \sqrt{3}.
p=-\sqrt{3}k+30-3\sqrt{3}
Divide -3k-9+30\sqrt{3} by \sqrt{3}.
p=-\sqrt{3}k+30-3\sqrt{3}\text{, }p\neq 30
Variable p cannot be equal to 30.
